We had a fantastic stay. Every single staff member was friendly and welcoming. Room was clean and had everything we needed (traveling with 2 young children). Shuttle to St Armand circle was great, nice pool and restaurant. Unfortunately construction on beach but that’s out of anyone’s control. would highly recommend for families or anyone looking for a beautiful, convenient stay on Lido beach area.
